Abstract
Abstract
Aim. This study was conducted with the aim of identifying different educational approaches to self-care and their outcomes in elderly patients with hypertension.
Background. The increase in life expectancy and decrease in fertility rates have led to a growth in the elderly population worldwide. High blood pressure, one of the most common chronic diseases among the elderly, is on the rise. Engaging patients in self-care activities is considered as an effective way to control high blood pressure, requiring a shift in patient understanding, attitude, and education.
Method. This review was conducted using searching out the keywords, self-care, elderly, high blood pressure, hypertension, and patient education in databases, Web of Science, Scopus, SID, MagIran, PubMed, and Google Scholar from 2010 to 2024. Inclusion criteria consisted of articles published in Farsi and English with full-text availability, resulting in the evaluation of 14 articles.
Findings. The study revealed that education based on various approaches such as health belief, common sense, interactive and blended, Leventhal, multimedia, and virtual space had a positive and significant impact on blood pressure control. However, the specific approach with the most impact remains unclear, though studies suggest the health belief model has a greater influence.
Conclusion. Based on these findings, it is recommended that patient education is conducted based on educational approaches and self-learning models. This recommendation should be considered by hospital patient education units and nurses.
